Recenzii
"The essays are complex, evocative, approachable, and attentive to the films ironies and nuances. There is something here for the slacker as well as the scholar, for all Lebowskis, big and small, for film specialists, 90s fanatics, scholars of American studies, and the ever-growing assemblage of Lebowski cultists worldwide." Patrick O'Donnell, Michigan State University
